It's official, this is a series!! Me attempting new cake trends. This week I am tackling the folded origami cake. This makes such a stunning geometrical shaped cake by folding paper to create an origami looking template. You then pipe chocolate ganache onto your tempate and place that around the cake. Easier said than done!!! But I think we nailed it!

I love how her videos don’t even have an intro. Just straight into it. Seriously my favorite thing lol

[@elyseozomah2077]

For real I be skippin those intros

[@crzycxndy6103]

I honestly thought they would make the icing thick and then push the paper in to create that deep origami shape, but this makes sense.

[@osoto5772]

I was thinking the same , what a surprise when she said chocolate

[@lunabelletheinsane]

I would think either way would work, honestly. If you wanted to do this with just icing, you totally could.

[@sideupsun]

i thought it was just edible paper stuck around it like she always does

[@SarahWelstead]

@@lunabelletheinsane As someone who's attempted a lot of stuff with 'just icing', I think you'd have to be like the world's most skilled icing artist to get your icing to the right stability to hold those sharp edges. Chocolate (or candy melts) seems like the only way to go here.

[@TheRoosje1964]

Great to see but trouble when it's time to cut it. It wont cut a nice slice because the chocolate got hard. 😮

[@MargoMB19]

I love knowing that these cake layers were leftovers from other videos, that makes the whole thing even better. And thanks (again) for not 'making it look so easy' through the magic of video editing, I love seeing the real process and mistakes and learning. And it makes it even better when we see how happy and excited you are when it comes out good!

The final product really looks incredible and I can imagine guests being very confused about how it was made. I wish you had cut into it... I wanted to see the ratio of cake to chocolate because it seemed pretty extreme.

[@girlwhomustnotbenamed4139]

Considering there was virtually no frosting between the layers, I don't think it was too much.

[@Smile-ni9nc]

[@Clarky1951]

Late to the show…Black Friday shopping online. You can buy the origami mold from icing inspirations. Relatively inexpensive. Not sure lazy me would want to do all that folding 🤪 I do really love the colour, I’m a blue girl!! And you were soooo excited removing the parchment….too sweet. Don’t you love it when a technique works out!! Just love it…cake is so unique and pretty.

[@SugarellaSweets]

Hi, just wanted to say thank you so much to have featured my cake. I feel very flattered. You did an amazing job, the cake came out nice :) @theicingartist

[@Pudeta]

Really beautiful! It looks like on some cakes, some of the triangles are hollow (like the yellow one in the front). Is it an illusion or is there another way to do this? The amount of chocolate in this video seemed excessive, less would be more of my style. Maybe it's because Laurie made the origami inside-out (triangles not pointing outwards)?

[@funty420]

this snatched me ALL the way back, thank you for the turmoil to create such art

[@LHCleo]

I can't believe you put the extra effort in to touch up the cake and smooth things out. So many content creators would just shoot a different angle or directly skip to the end part with the flowers. Love the work and the transparency! 👏🏻

[@Kt-cn2rq]

I would have done just that since sometimes make it worse.

[@YKkris10]

Awesome tutorial, thank you. I love that you shared all the lessons learned (e.g.: two sided tape with parchment, air bubbles) because that's what saves the frustrations and allows for good planning.

[@bjornmaxson]

Nice job, Lady! That looks amazing!! Love the sharp edges. Thanks for showing and talking about the realistic time frame and aspects of creating a cake like this. It'll give those of us who are amateurs a much better idea of how much time to set aside to make this.

[@kathybyers398]

Incredible! I'd love to see how you cut through that thick ganache. I hope it softens a bit to allow a knife to slide through without ruining all that work.

[@maiaallman4635]

It's so beautiful that your top matches the ganache!

[@bjornmaxson]

Hello maia, how're you doing today!!!

[@rachaelpetrak940]

This look A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!😍 love the colours. I find it easier (and what we did when I worked at the Cheesecake Shop) is to pour the ganache over the cake to cover it. This makes a thin layer of ganache for a crumb coat and makes it less time consuming and easier to cover the cake 🙂

[@fireflymiesumae]

I absolute love the cake. And Kevin is really supportive

[@sheilaross6791]

Stunning!!!! Thank you for all the hours of hard work. It is so beautiful!! Never saw that before but it is so pretty!

[@caeliejohnson3650]

I think the cake turned out absolutely beautiful and I’m always blown away by her work, but did anyone notice that the actual design is inside-out? The triangles are pointing in instead of out, she filled the forms upside down. It’s still a wildly beautiful cake, but I’m surprised that no one in the comments has pointed this out yet

[@Pudeta]

You're right :D But it kinda works both ways

[@katw6757]

I thought something was off! But I actually like it better this way. It looks more delicate than the cakes that have the points out

Out of all the cake videos I’ve watched you bring the best performance and a lot of amazing tips

[@karamfaiz1324]

I feel like this is.. From the trend cakes that u did.. This cake was the most successful.. I mean.. Literally no mess ups except the Salab bowl dent but who cares about that.. And no redoing the whole cake.. Just slap some flowers on there and BAMMM.. ART.. BEAUTY.. i feel like this turquoise /teal cake would look pretty good as a second tier on a plain white ganache cake.. It would be a cool wedding cake 💜💜💜💜💜

[@fionaclaphamhoward5876]

Good on you for tackling another bit of chocolate science Laurie, and getting such a great result. Not everything labelled "chocolate" will work for some techniques so while you're right that it's a science, please don't be scared of that! Girls and women can and do master science stuff all the time, including the chemistry of baking and food science. The reason the last chocolate you bought is regarded as "the best" is because it has a high cocoa butter content. This isn't a secret, it's right there on the ingredients list! Look for chocolate products that have cocoa butter or cocoa solids as the FIRST listed ingredient, for techniques like this one. If it has sugar listed as the first ingredient, that's compound chocolate, not "real" chocolate, and will give you different results. (Although it definitely has its place for some uses too.) All science involves learning about what something is made of and how those substances behave in different conditions and combinations. Then some trial and error, do some experiments and note your results. That's baking!! So if you're baking, you're already doing science, and it's nothing to fear.

Oh wow. That looks amazing. Had I not been listening to the audio I never would’ve guessed this was a first time. Your skills are crazy!

[@magikdust2095]

I think this cake looks neat, but I'm not sure it would taste the best. I have never seen someone make ganache with water before. Generally they will use milk or cream. I wonder if you'd be able to do this effect with buttercream... I'm not sure why it wouldn't work, because it hardens up in the fridge, and it doesn't usually stick to wax paper, or parchment paper... but I'm not sure if that would work... I definitely think it would taste better. Anyway, it is a neat idea, and it was a good video 👍

[@magdalenamaria7335]

This was my first thought too! I work mostly with ganache and for me water + choccy is just one big no... Don't understand why not use cream and just higher chocolate content, so it stays nice and stiff. Also, she's using proper chocolate, I used it several times, it's really good! The cake looks amazing, I must try this technique in the future (but with cream, not water haha).

[@-_-Neelakshi-_-]

Laurie I always wanted to ask you something for a person who don't like too sweet flavour which cake and icing flavours you would recommend...❤

[@llss101]

I know I am not Laurie but I feel the same and vanilla bean cake and Swiss meringue buttercream is the best combination and not too sweet.

[@super_siri]

Chocolate cake is probably the least sweet because chocolate is bitter. And you could do a whipped cream frosting with whatever level of sugar you prefer. Or do an Italian or Swiss meringue buttercream, which include egg whites along with butter and sugar, instead of like an American buttercream which is only butter and sugar, so again not as sweet. You could also make whipped chocolate Ganache which because of the chocolate again isn't as sweet.

What gets me about White chocolate is- there is White Cocoa Butter which comes from Chocolate and is technically white chocolate, and then there is White Baking Morsels which is made from Palm kernel oil and everyone wants to call it white chocolate and it has absolutely nothing to do with cocoa products. Being an Industrial Designer, I think will design and make myself a reusable mold so that I can make this cake several times.

You are absolutely correct. I’ve had many debates on my cakey fb pages about this. Cakers not understanding that cheap melting morsels are not chocolate!!!
